Colored TextAlthough this is a somewhat sensitive topic, we know we need to bring this up sooner or later. This is just the right time to do so.

You might have noticed how messy the traffic in China can be. Every time you decide to hit the road for whatever reason, you will see people crossing the road in the wrong place. But pedestrians are not the only ones you see misbehaving, because in every corner of the street, you see drivers being too proud to give pedestrians a chance to get themselves moving to the other side of the road. It seems as if the pedestrians don't know how traffic works, and the drivers don't bother to acknowledge the existence of another road users.

Fortunately, Dalian is doing something to clean up this mess. In order to stop this craziness, Dalian traffic police will crack down on these two types of phenomena and will give relevant penalties. Details as follows:

Pedestrian road-crossing:

Pedestrians who cross the road in the wrong place and in the wrong time will be fined 50 - 200 RMB penalty. In each intersection, the law enforcement education will be carried out for offending persons to learn on the spot, copy traffic laws and watch traffic safety propaganda films.

Drivers disrespecting pedestrians (at zebra cross):

The traffic police department is installing more than 50 installation and capture systems. Any act of showing off a zebra crossing to a captured vehicle will be fined 200 RMB and 3 points penalty.

虽然很不想谈及这个话题，但是行人乱穿马路、机动车不礼让行人这类现象，在中国真的很常见，这是一种文明陋习，更是一种对自己、对他人的生命不负责的表现。

好在，为了制止这类现象，大连交警将严查这两类现象，并给予相关处罚。具体如下：

行人乱穿马路：

交警部门将对行人强行乱穿马路和闯交通信号灯的行为一律按上限罚款50至200元处罚。在个别路口还将实行对违法行为人进行现场学习抄写交通法规和观看交通安全宣传片的教育方式。

机动车不礼让行人（斑马线）：

交警部门正在增设安装抓拍系统50余处，凡是对抓拍到的机动车不礼让斑马线的行为，交警部门将一律按顶格上限，给予罚款200元记3分的处罚。
